Non-free content use
[edit] Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia. We always appreciate when users upload files. However, it appears that one or more of the files you have uploaded or added to a page, specifically User:G. Finknottle, may fail our non-free policy. Most often, this involves editors uploading or using a copyrighted file of a living person. For other possible reasons, please read up on our Non-free criteria. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. -- Marchjuly (talk) 12:51, 22 April 2019 (UTC)
- Hi G. Finknottle. Files licensed as non-free content like File:Richard Garnett as Gussie Fink-Nottle.jpg are subject to Wikipedia's non-free content use policy and this policy is quite restrictive. There are ten non-free content use criteria which need to be satisfied each time a non-free file is used anywhere on Wikipedia. One of these criteria in non-free content use criterion #9 which basically says that non-free files can only be used in article; this means, as explained in Wikipedia:User pages#Non-free files, that non-free files cannot be added to a user page. You can, however, add a link to a non-free file like I did above, but you cannot display it. It's OK if you didn't understand this, but please don't re-add this particular file or add any other non-free files to your user page again. If you want to add images to your user page, then take a look at Wikimedia Commons since those images can be used on user pages. If you've got any questions about this feel free to ask them below. -- Marchjuly (talk) 13:07, 22 April 2019 (UTC)
